Feeling the evil spirit in the spring water, Li Qingfeng nodded. It seemed that the evil beast was inside. He looked back at Li Qingdong and asked: "Brother Qingdong, there may be monsters in this cave. I plan to go in and have a look. You haven't cultivated yet, and it's too dangerous to go in. Let's do this. I'll take you out first." How about a period of time and then you walk back by yourself?"
Li Qingdong has not yet entered the stage of Qi training, so asking him to go in and fight the monster is tantamount to asking him to die.
"Okay, it's up to you."
Li Qingdong agreed immediately. He was still reminiscing about the feeling of being taken flying by Li Qingfeng. Now that Li Qingfeng said this, he naturally had no problem - after all, he was left here alone without weapons. What if he encountered a wild beast?
But if Li Qingfeng knew what he was thinking, he would definitely be reassured. Generally, monsters have violent personalities, and there are basically no dangerous beasts in their territory.
Seeing Li Qingdong nodding in agreement, Li Qingfeng grabbed Li Qingdong and flew into the air without saying a word, taking him flying in the direction he came from.
After a while, the road beside the creek started to get easier. Li Qingfeng found a flat place to land on, and told Li Qingdong to go back alone, while he walked along the stream again towards the cave.
After being put down by Li Qingfeng, Li Qingdong's face turned a little pale, but there was still a look of yearning in his eyes.
He loved the feeling of flying in the air. Like a bird, he can look down at the earth from the air, and all prey cannot hide from his eyes. You can let the wind pass through every part of your body and enjoy the incomparable feeling of pleasure.
Although Li Qingdong enjoyed being taken by Li Qingfeng to fly, he couldn't help but think about how great it would be if he could fly, so that he didn't have to be taken around and could go wherever he wanted.
It's a pity that his cultivation level is not high enough, otherwise he would be able to fly by himself.
...
After a while, Li Qingfeng returned to the cave again. He first found a flat bluestone and sat down cross-legged, kneading the magic formula with his hands, closing his eyes, and quietly adjusting his state.
In fact, with his character as a monk in the alchemy stage in his previous life, he didn't even need to close his eyes or sit down cross-legged to return to his normal state. But Li Qingfeng has set a low-key development path for himself since his rebirth. He doesn't want others to realize his specialness because of some differences in details.
After about a stick of incense, Li Qingfeng opened his eyes and his condition adjusted.
Standing up, Li Qingfeng casually released a Water Shield Technique on himself, picked up the magic technique, jumped into the air, and got into the stone cave.
The cave was not as dark as expected. Except for some light coming from the hole where Li Qingfeng got in, there was also something shining brightly on top of his head. Li Qingfeng calmly used the "Ziyun Demon Breaking Eye". In his consciousness, there was no living thing above his head.
Purple light rose in his eyes, and the entire cave suddenly became much clearer.
The cave is very large, and above Li Qingfeng's head are slender stone pillars with their tips pointed downwards, dripping water drop by drop. The stone pillars were covered with dark yellowish green vines, and there were some small blue-black fruits on the plants. The light just now seemed to come from them.
Flying a little higher, Li Qingfeng felt that these plants seemed to contain spiritual power. When he looked carefully, he found that they indeed did. He had never seen this kind of plant before, so he stretched out his hand and twisted it. It was slightly prickly and prickly.
I don't know if this thing is poisonous.
Li Qingfeng reached out and pulled off two small sections of vines from the stone pillars, along with a few small fruits, and casually put them into the storage bag. Don't worry about this, you can study it carefully when you go back.
He looked around with purple light in his eyes, but did not see the existence of monsters, and he did not sense a large amount of monster energy in his consciousness. There is water under your feet. Although the content of demonic energy in the water is slightly higher than that of the spring water at home, it is not much higher.
Li Qingfeng glanced at the water under his feet. It was so dark that he couldn't see the bottom. Then he glanced at the entrance of the cave, where spring water was continuously flowing out. Nodding, Li Qingfeng was sure that the lake under his feet must lead to some other place.
He flew around and spent about a cup of tea carefully confirming that there was no other entrance to the cave. Then he raised his hand and cast a first-level spell "Water Avoidance Curse" on himself. This spell can form a layer of water around him. It has no other function except to assist diving.
There is water everywhere and the air is very humid. Releasing water attribute spells here can reduce spiritual energy consumption and enhance the effect of the spells. Therefore, Li Qingfeng's spiritual power has not suffered too much loss now.
Without hesitation, Li Qingfeng threw himself into the water, and the water-avoiding spell immediately came into effect, forming a layer of water around him.
The water is pitch black and very deep. Through Li Qingfeng's magic eyes, he can see that there are some small fish, shrimps, turtles, etc. in the water. In addition, there are many various aquatic plants rooted underwater, blocking Li Qingfeng's downward view.
However, Li Qingfeng didn't pay too much attention because he felt an extremely weak spiritual power in the water.
There was a hint of joy in his eyes, with demonic aura and spiritual power. It seemed that his guess was correct. There was indeed a demon beast's lair here.
Turning his head and looking around, Li Qingfeng's eyes lit up slightly - about two feet below him, he saw a dark passage behind the water plants.
With a movement of his body, Li Qingfeng swam towards the passage.
The passage is very long, and if placed on the mountain outside, it would definitely be called winding and rugged. As Li Qingfeng continued to go deeper, he felt that the evil spirit in the water became thicker.
The passage became narrower and narrower, and there was a protruding rock in front of him blocking Li Qingfeng's way. There is a gap of more than half a foot in height, and from there you can see that the passage is still extending backwards.
He stretched out his hand to push the rock, but his tentacles were not as hard as rock, but loose, like mud that had been soaked in water for a long time. He patted it again, and the soil floated up one after another, making the water in the channel turbid.
Fortunately, the water kept flowing, and the turbid muddy water was quickly washed away. Li Qingfeng raised both hands and continued to expand the opening above, and the passage behind it was gradually revealed.
The gap has been opened to a height of more than a foot, which is almost enough for Li Qingfeng to get through. He put his hand into the earth and rock again and pulled hard, trying to open the hole wider to make it easier for him to pass through. But he didn't expect that this time the tentacle was not soft soil, but some hard object.
Li Qingfeng was sure that this was definitely not a stone. The thing was cold to the touch, slightly rough to the touch, and slightly curved to the touch, and there seemed to be a deep depression above the curve. Li Qingfeng exerted force on his hand, but the thing didn't move at all. Then he pushed aside the soil and followed the arc and felt down, and there were more and more deep and shallow depressions.
Suddenly, Li Qingfeng's hand stopped.
He felt a deep crack.
